Confirm your face group and let your contacts get suggestions to share photos with you

If you select your “me” face label, you let the Google Photos app on your contacts' devices recognize your face. Then, Google Photos can send them suggestions to share photos they have of you with you.

Things to know

If you label your “Me” face group and let your contacts recognize your face in photos:

You let your contacts get suggestions to send photos of you to you, but you won’t be publicly tagged in photos. Public tagging is not available on Google Photos.

Your contacts may get a suggestion to share, but they can choose if they want to share with you.

Change or remove the “me” face label

If you select the wrong face, you can change the “me” face label to the right face. You can also remove your face group, but you’ll get fewer personalized creations and your contacts won’t be able to automatically recognize your face in photos.
